Heat!

This art installation of HEAT is the concept of Grade 7 science students at a local elementary school.

The students began by brainstorming what they knew about heat - how it affects the environment, what is good and bad about it, how it makes them feel, what colours would best represent heat, and then came up with a way to demonstrate their ideas visually.

They felt that it is important to show heat as energy and that it can move, and that warm colours best represented this. Each student created an individual "atom" that makes up the explosion of creativity, colour and science that is HEAT!

  7. As I scroll down this blog, my eyes were glued to “Heat!” because it has been unseasonably hot in Japan. Much hotter than real summer in the month of May is abnormal, though abnormal weather is becoming normal recently. I totally agree with your last sentence. Be happy and creative!
